Identifying commercial impediments to successfully completing
|
|
clinical trials in otherwise capable pharmaceuticals will hopefully
|
|
lead to a more robust and competitive pharmaceutical market.
|
|
%FIXTAG: too much "hopefully"
|
|
Although the current state of this research is insufficient to draw robust
|
|
conclusions, these early results suggest that delaying the close of
|
|
enrollment period reduces the probability of termination of a trial.
|
|
%FIXTAG: OK for now but I think there might be a better way to handle this for now
|
|
|
|
% The successful completion of Phase III clinical trials is crucial for
|
|
% bringing new treatments to market.
|
|
%FIXTAG: needs to be earlier
|
|
The primary limitation that must be addressed before drawing a strong conclusion
|
|
is that of insufficient data.
|
|
%FIXTAG: This needs rewritten
|
|
This takes two forms.
|
|
%FIXTAG: needs better transition
|
|
The first is the small sample size.
|
|
To overcome this requires an improved data matching
|
|
approach and a revised data scraper.
|
|
%FIXTAG: active voice: this can be overcome by...
|
|
The second is creating a model of enrollment that can be used to address
|
|
the causal identification issue from the joint determination of
|
|
enrollment statuses and elapsed durations of trials.
|
|
%FIXTAG: sentence is too complicated
|
|
|
|
Despite these limitations, this work establishes a framework for analyzing
|
|
operational versus strategic factors in clinical trial completion.
|
|
%FIXTAG: analyzing replaced with "separating causal effects"
|
|
The approach developed here can be extended with additional data to
|
|
provide more definitive guidance on enrollment management strategies.
|
|
%FIXTAG: the approach here + additional data can provide
|
|
%FIXTAG: tie to next sentence better
|
|
Further research in this direction could help reduce operational
|
|
barriers to trial completion or estimating the impact policies may have through
|
|
operational channels.%FIXTAG: clauses don't match. first clause needs tightened.
|
|
Ultimately this work will hopefully support more efficient drug
|
|
development and increased market competition. %FIXTAG: wishy-washy and duplicative.
